S72.431D
ICD-10-CMDisplaced fracture of medial condyle of right femur, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing
This code signifies a fracture of the inner bony prominence at the lower end of the right thigh bone that has shifted out of its normal alignment. The patient is in a phase of follow-up care where the fracture is mending without complications and the skin over the fracture site remains intact.
Apply this code for patients presenting for routine follow-up appointments, cast changes, or imaging studies during the healing period of a previously diagnosed and treated displaced medial condyle fracture of the right femur. This is appropriate when the fracture is progressing as expected towards union and no new complications have arisen.
